A Mare in the Wire

from Saturnal Chambers by Kyrios

/

lyrics

Shattered, the porcelain mare
Sent tumbling into the wire
Designed by man to harm, to exclude
Lattice of razor slices
Opening the pristine white
Like fireworks of plasma
The plume of equine blood
So red

The constellations will fall
As searing trails
from their godless skies above

Their constitutions will fail
As a tectonic shift
cracks the earth like a fragile egg

Ravaging all of their comforts
Their monuments of shame
Eroded into dust, their world
To time but a fading stain

He had carried them to war
On broken backs they rode
No hand to brandish weaponry
Nor desire to destroy

The sands of bitter time they grind
betwixt their broken yellowed teeth

Violence their only expression
At any cost they’ll speak
With their Braided metal fences
The dawn of man’s true nature has arrived

All that does live too shall die
An accelerant of such forces
In Mans endless thirst for plight
Eviscerating helpless handless gods
